Frage
Which statement below about plant and animal cells is correct?

Frage 3

Frage
Which statement about DIFFUSION is NOT CORRECT?
Antworten
  • A It is the net movement of substances from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration against a concentration gradient.

  • C Diffusion is responsible for the movement of both food into and wastes out of many single-celled organisms.
  • D Molecules can only move in one direction when a substance is diffusing into or out of a cell.

Frage 4

Frage
 Which statement about OSMOSIS is NOT CORRECT?
Antworten
  • A Osmosis is a special type of diffusion.
  • B Osmosis always involves the movement of water .
  • C Osmosis is only possible if there is a semipermeable membrane separating solutions of different concentrations.
  • D In osmosis solute particles move from regions of higher concentration to regions of lower concentration.

Frage 5

Frage
An ENZYME is:
Antworten
  • A Any substance which acts as a catalyst.
  • B A protein which acts on a specific substrate by means of its active site.

Frage 6

Frage
Which of the following is the best definition of the term "nutrition"?
Antworten

  • B Obtaining the nutrients - proteins,carbohydrates, amino acids, vitamins and minerals, needed for a healthy diet.
  • C Taking in of organic substances and mineral ions containing the raw materials and energy for growth and repair, and absorbing and assimilating them.

Frage 7

Frage
The ability to detect or sense changes in the environment (stimuli) and to make responses is known as:
Antworten
  • A responsivity
  • B sensitivity
  • C reactivity
  • D adaptability

Frage 8

Frage
Which of the following is the best explanation as to why there is a limit to the size that cells can grow to?
Antworten
  • A Bigger cells require more nutrients and energy to survive.
  • B The bigger a cell, the smaller its surface area to volume ratio and the slower materials diffuse into or out of the cell.
  • C Even with cell walls, cells cannot support themselves once they get bigger than a certain size.
  • D One cell can only perform limited functions, it is better to have many cells with different types of cells performing different functions.

Frage 9

Frage
"Active transport" is the movement of:
Antworten
  • A molecules from a region of their higher concentration to a region of their lower concentration.
  • B particles from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration using energy from respiration.
  • C urine by relaxation of a sphincter muscle in the bladder.
  • D water through a partially permeable membrane from a more dilute to a more concentrated solution.

Frage 10

Frage
The diagram shows an experiment to demonstrate the movement of molecules. After one hour, the water in the beaker turned red. What is the most likely reason for this colour change?
Antworten
  • A Molecules of red ink move through the membrane by diffusion.
  • B Molecules of red ink move through the membrane by osmosis.
  • C Molecules of water move through the membrane by diffusion.
  • D Molecules of water move through the membrane by osmosis.

Frage 11

Frage
The diagram shows water and sugar molecules on either side of a partially permeable membrane. What happens during osmosis?
Antworten
  • A More sugar molecules pass through the membrane from X to Y than from Y to X.
  • B More sugar molecules pass through the membrane from Y to X than from X to Y.
  • C More water molecules pass through the membrane from X to Y than from Y to X.
  • D More water molecules pass through the membrane from Y to X than from X to Y.
